The Sentry

Here's a few sketches from a fun comic project I'm working on that I'm pretty excited about. Its for a new mini-series featuring the Marvel Super-hero, the Sentry! I was asked to ink the cover to issue #1, which was drawn by dashing Dave Bullock, and that lead to me drawing a 10 page story for issue #2. When I got the script by the talented Paul Tobin, I almost flipped out, as it featured pretty much everything and everyone I'd ever wanted to draw in a super-hero story! I'll spare you the details, but suffice to say that I'm drawing it right now, and I'm really jazzed about working on it.

Above are a few of my warm-up sketches of the Sentry, and below is the inked cover to issue #1, penciled by Dave Bullock and inked by yours truely.

As for the X-men story, I'm slated to draw a short little 5-page segment for Jeff Parker's X-men First Class book. I think it's for a Halloween themed special, and there's going to be a lot of other great artists contributing to it. The best part, of course, is that I get to draw it in my two-tone style...that alone gets me all jazzed!

I stumbled across this and thought I'd pass it along to anyone out there who wants to order the book from your local comic shop: (I already did and can't wait to read it)GIANT-SIZE X-MEN: FIRST CLASS #1Written by JEFF PARKER & ROGER LANGRIDGEPenciled by MICHAEL CHO, ROGER LANGRIDGE, NICK KILISLIAN,DEAN HASPIEL, DAVID WILLIAMS & JEFF PARKER
